Yeah, brilliant - mind you he did have a point. LVG seems a bit confused with the the Premier League stylee. In the air, on the ground, 4-4-2, 3-5-2 let's try a Diamond today etc etc.
I think without De Gea they'd be totally stuffed. Shambles in the back 3 or 4.
My MUFC supporting mates are baffled and under-whelmed!

@AndyRM
Thanks - I think you are right come to think of it.
We should put our teams in our sig's! (Just sorted that!)

I'm not sure I could stand the shame of two embarrassing facts in my sig line!

Hmmm, Chelsea away
Heart: Exciting game, we match you stride for stride and Lukaku makes JM rue ever letting him go by scoring both goals in a 2-0 win for the Toffees
Head: Anything other than a defeat will be a bonus
We have tightened things up a bit recently but keeping mediocrity like Palace and Liverpool out is one thing, the oil clubs are another, but as Greavsie used to say...."It's a funny old game"

It is a funny old game!
Not expecting another bonkers 9 goal thriller though.
What's all this oil club stuff? We've spent a net £25m less than you this season.
(Apologies for deliberately ignoring previous 4 seasons net transfer spending.)
Good luck Wednesday night.
We are going to Goodison Park next season - this and Southampton are the only grounds of the current teams in the PL we have never been to. Hope it's a damn site more friendly than Anfield! Only places we have ever had more abuse was at Leeds and Millwall.

I assume I'm not alone in finding that a wee bit desperate?

No you're not alone.
Desperate and amusing!
Wonder if he'll change tactics against Burnley tomorrow!

£5.1bn is mind-boggling!
However - it would be much better if every fan could watch every single game without having to resort to illegal streams.

Mind bogging if you think of it in UK terms, but I suppose with the money pouring in for televised football from the far east and elsewhere it's easily affordable to the broadcasters.
In a way it's a shame, the game is far better than it ever has been in my 50+ years following it but the ordinary fan is becoming a bit of an irrelevance in the grand scheme of things.

Us out of the relegation zone. Villa in it.
Still, awfully close down that end of the table
